remove W10 App Microsoft.PPIProjection

Can someone help me to remove the app >>Microsoft.PPIProjection<< form Windows 20H2, i want to generalize my image for deployments. 

 

The app is marked as "NonRemovable" - i tried several scripts, without success.

 

THANK YOU

        The only solution I've found is to use the below command to find out which user the app is installed on (in my case it was the built-in local administrator account), then delete that user profile from sysdm.cpl:

         

         

         

        Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers -Name Microsoft.PPI* | Select-Object -Property Name,PackageFullName,PackageUserInformation | Format-List
